Please check out this awesome children's book written and illustrated by 2 former students.
It makes a great gift. I bought a copy and my kids love it. Especially finding the hidden letters on each page, that really kept them entertained as they learned about A&M and I shared stories about what each page meant to me (i know they thought that was the boring part - but that was my favorite part going down memory lane).

Is this a reprint of the one that has been around for 25+ years that used to be sold at Loupot's and other places?

If OP makes enough money off of this venture, will he acquire an Ag Tag?

Knowing today's tendency to bow to political correctness, I'll never recommend a book that has been "updated" unless I get a chance to review it to make sure there aren't any tributes to "Wokeism".

You're not wrong! Weirdly enough, I just saw him at HEB at Tower Point.

I'm partial to Goodnight Aggieland... You can't really buy it anymore, so no need to buy an Ad...

Maybe it will resurface one day.

A may be for Aggie, but B does not appear to be for Black.
Let's go, Brandon!

There's a lot of racism in College Station. At least it was in the 90s.

Well you'd be sad too if you had a dog that the woke mob turned from a bad ass honey badger of a dog to one that is special needs and needs to be retired every 4 years due to mental issues.

Also how old is the bugle line guy? 8 or 80?

Back in those days a kid in a wheelchair was about as woke as we got,
. But they had better be in the wheel chair from an accident so that they could serve as a cautionary tale

I never got it either. The ONLY thing he ever did that wasn't laughably bad were the ring prints that people got to frame with their diplomas.

I won't buy any Knox art until he fixes the 12th Man print and quits putting January 1, 1922 on it.

Because she knows her fate is to be reincarnated as a statue outside Kyle Field.
